Just do it! - As many trips as we've taken to NYC, had never done the Upper West Side, what a shame, the architecture, culture and FOOD, just go! Every food stop will be your new favorite, and our guide (Alex) was so incredibly knowledgable, you couldn't do this on your own and why bother with experts like Alex?

Upper East Side with Tasty Tours - HIGHLY highly recommend this tour!! - As an early birthday treat, my mum booked us on this incredible food tour of the Upper West Side with Tasty Tours NYC, led by the fantastic Ryan—personable, knowledgeable, and fun!
We started at Broad Nosh Bagels for a delicious, overstuffed everything bagel, then stopped by Mimi’s Pizza for a perfectly prepared cheese slice (and garlicky knots!).
Next was a sweet treat — Zabars' famous chocolate rugelach, paired with what was probably the best coffee of our trip.
Along the way, we saw a real Banksy ('Hammer Boy') and visited Strawberry Fields in Central Park, where a musician played Imagine—a moving moment. Then came our favourite stop: Gray’s Papaya hot dogs—utterly delicious!
Finally, we ended at Magnolia Bakery, where Ryan surprised me with a birthday candle in my banana pudding, while my mum had a delicious cupcake!
We left full and happy—such a fun morning! Highly recommend this tour! 🍕🥯🌭🎂
